But some interesting wine producers need to be mentioned :

- Turkey: both red and white wines of remarkable quality
- Lebanon: mainly red wines of superb quality
- Israel: mainly red wines of superb quality
- Egypt: nice table-wines, red/rosé/white.... enjoyable
- Tunisia+Algeria: good mainly red wines
- Morocco: mainly red wines of superb quality
- Malta: small quantities of excellent red wines
-
- Georgia: excellent red + white wines
- Bulgaria: excellent red + white wines
- Hungary: a leading producer of superb wines
- India + China: producing astonishingly remarkable red wines
-
- Jersey, C.I. : one interesting vineyards with remarkable wines
and last but not least, the England, U.K., slowly emerging with really enjoyable nice wines !
I would like to add a certain country that nobody mentioned: Greece!

I know they have a track record of producing low quality mass wines for tourists, but I had a very nice one lately and it looks like a bit more of a decade ago, many Greek producers recognized that quality is a better way than mass production... there is quite something to try out (and I will not make a long list of funny grape names here).
